context_page_description: The Ukrainian Catholic Eparchy of the Holy Family of London is the eparchy for Ukrainian Greek Catholics in Great Britain. It is one of two Eastern Rite Catholic dioceses in Great Britain, along with the Syro-Malabar Catholic Eparchy of Great Britain.
  Unlike many other nations outside Ukraine to which the Ukrainian diaspora have emigrated, such as Canada and Australia, the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in Great Britain did not have eparchal status until 18 January 2013, when the apostolic exarchate was promoted. Due to the comparatively small number of faithful in the eparchy, in comparison with Latin Catholic dioceses in Britain there are fewer services, such as schools and care centres, provided.
  The eparchy received a new Bishop on 15 January 2020 - Bishop Kenneth Nowakowski.
context_section_description: On 18 January 2013 the Exarchate was elevated in the rank of the Eparchy (full bishopric) by Pope Benedict XVI.
  The Ukrainian Catholic church in Wolverhampton was included as part of a video series by English Heritage on faith buildings in England.
